NAVY BLUE
MY SOLDIER IS UNDER THE WEATHER
AND HE’S WAY, WAY OUT TO SEA
HE HAD TO GO ON DEPLOYMENT
I WISH HE WAS HERE WITH ME
HE TEXT’D ME AND TOLD ME HE’S STUFFY
AND ACHY AND SHAKY AND BLUE
HE’S SWEATING BECAUSE OF A FEVER
AND HIS TONSILS ARE HURTING HIM TOO
BUT YET HE’S STILL GOING ON DUTY
HE’S A SOLDIER SO HE MUST COMPLY
ALL I CARE ABOUT IS MY SWEETHEART
AND HE’S SICK SO NOW I WANNA CRY
SO NOW I AM SAYING A PRAYER
YES… TO THE LORD I PLEA
PLEASE KEEP HIM SAFE
AND KEEP HIM SOUND
AND BRING HIM HOME TO ME!!
